Hydrophobic interaction chromatography in continuous flow-through mode for product-related variant removal.

Product-related impurities are challenging to remove during monoclonal antibody (mAb) purification process due to molecular similarity. Frontal chromatography on hydrophobic interaction resins has demonstrated its capability to effectively remove such impurities. However, process improvements geared towards purity level comes as a trade-off with the yield loss.

Effect of solution condition on the binding behaviors of monoclonal antibody and fusion protein therapeutics in Protein A chromatography.

Recent development in Protein A chromatography has adopted wash buffers with a wide range of pH to improve the removal of process-related impurities, e.g., host cell proteins (HCPs), from Fc-based target biological products.
